Abstract

The present invention relates to a method of operating an electronic device and an electronic device. The electronic device comprises a signal path for transmitting data, an input/output interface connected with the signal path, a masking circuit and an error calculation circuit. The masking circuit is connected with the signal path and the error calculation circuit. The error calculation circuit is connected with the signal path. The signal path is connected with the masking circuit to deliver masking information to the masking circuit. The masking circuit considers the received masking information for masking the data and delivers the masked and non-masked data to the error detection circuit.
